I had a student lose their life like this, and I’m sure if the person wasn’t driving such a big vehicle, they would have seen the student in time to stop.
In the college town near me, students walk directly in-front of cars and bikes. Nearly hit oblivious pedestrians stepping into the road on multiple occasions while on my bike. Some people put very loud horns on their 2 and 4 wheeled vehicles, which is pretty funny anytime they get used.
If you don’t want people stepping into the road then stop putting roads everywhere. They built a road in between my home and work and I hate it, I want to get rid of the road and go back to the good old days.
I don’t believe there’s such a thing as “careful enough” when people’s lives are at stake. If they were more careful they may have avoided nearly killing someone.

Yeah, my student is forever 8 and a shortie for their age. They were crossing in a crosswalk and the driver was turning right. It’s not the same.

The good old days like 5000 BC before we put roads everywhere?
I’m okay with footroads as long as cars aren’t allowed on them
I hope you are more careful in the future
BombOmOm was plenty careful as evidence by successfully avoiding collision with an unexpected obstacle.
